If you would not mind, once you have the 2012 done, could I PM you my FTP info?

Issuu is a publishing site (I know all about Issuu, I'm a Art Director :tiphat:) and I would rather have the PDF.

Issuu is great for Magazines, but the linked up PDF I had for my 2004 was the bomb :happydance:

And that is what I'm looking for. The manual I don't need internet access for :)

Thanks
Ben

If you want to shoot me the FTP info I can send it to you and if you have a better way of publishing??? or do you think ISSUU is ok? I don't know any better way to put this big file up except one piece at a time. I think you can actually download the pdf from ISSUU right? Or maybe I am wrong. Just let me know. I have the un-joined version of 2012 now. I can combine it or not. your choice.

Yeah... you can download the published files as PDF right from the interface. should be ok. same as here just people can also read it on the go with the ISSUU app... or download. :-)

Well it looks like you can download the original PDF. We as publishers are not really going for that so I had to check my self. I'm downloading one of my pubs now to see what it gives me.

OK looks like it gives me single page PDF, which is exactly what I up loaded.

So yeah I guess Issuu would work, but the download will be one doc, with no linking to the proper sections of the manual. I'm not sure but I think that might suck.

The one I had for my 04 was a linked up PDF (actually many pdfs linked to a "TOC" pdf.

I would prefer the linked up PDF. That way it works anywhere, iPad, iPhone, Mac, PC, internet, or no internet.

I'll PM you my FTP info tomorrow.

Thanks alot man. If you need any help with Issuu I can try to help you (tomorrow, as my work day has come to an end today!! :hello:

I dont know about a linked file unless someone created it that way. I think the seperate documents is how most of the manuals ive seen look. I combined it and it is very searchable.... it has a sudo toc on the side. You will see it. If you want to publish the 2012 version.... i will try to finish the 2011 manual tonight. Just tedious. Rep points always accepted as gratitude! Remember to let me know who you are so i can rep you back.

Thanks chknhawk! I would definitely be interested in downloading the '12 service manual in pdf.

Download from Issuu requires an account. I could probably stick the manual on my company FTP but i'd have to limit the amount of downloads each day.

rep'd you

I didnt know it requires an account... hmmm.. i figured public was public. Maybe just to view is public. Thanks. Im still in the process of uploading.

.....Also sorry for your loss. I remember my very first Z (1980 280ZX) and it got smashed up by a dumb *** turning on a red light at the top of a hill @ dusk. I was heartbroken.

So you have the sickness too. Buy a brand new car and then drive around with the dash and hatch area completely disassembled because you cant leave good enough alone. :bowrofl::driving:
